Question

A salesperson earns $175 per week plus a commission equal to 4% of her sales this week her goal is to earn no less than $525. Can someone tell me how to write this as an expression?

Answer 1

We know that a salesperson earns $175 per week.

Also, the salesperson earns a commission equal to 4%.

The goal of the salesperson is to earn no less than $525.

Now the expression for the above information is:

`175+0.04 x\geq 525`

Where:

`x` is the amount of sales.
